The Heiress’ Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call

Chapter 302 Eventual Disgrace

Roland was so anxious that he broke into a cold sweat. He quickly

ushered the Shepherd family out of their seats and snapped, “All of

you, to the back!”

“The back?” Charlie was incredulous as he protested, “But I’m supposed to go up on stage for the award!”

Lucas gave Roland an icy look. “Mr. Lewis, I expected better

After all, it would take a lot of work before Lucas could even get a hint of dirt on the Shepherds, and the investigation would have dragged on for months or years on end. At some point, Lucas would probably have called off the investigation or even deemed it a failure.

But things were different now, and Lucas’ forces were formidable Nothing good would come to Roland from getting on Lucas’ bad side.

Meanwhile, Charles couldn’t believe that he had worked on his speech for a full day and overnight for nothing. It didn’t help that his fellow university classmates were pelting him with questions in their group
